Tara Trask is one of the nation's leading jury consultants, specializing in civil litigation with a focus on complex commercial cases, including intellectual property, antitrust, and fraud. With over 25 years of experience, she has worked on more than 600 jury trials across 25 states and U.S. territories.

She has also been an advocate and mentor for justice-impacted individuals through her involvement with The Last Mile.

In her conversation with Ryan Leaf on The Last Mile Radio, Trask delves into the complexities of the jury selection process and the stark disparities between the civil and criminal justice systems. She discusses how her expertise in trial consulting has revealed systemic inequities, particularly the lack of representative juries in criminal cases, which often results in racial and socioeconomic biases. Her work has led her to advocate for broader participation in jury duty as a means to create fairer trials. Additionally, she reflects on her own recovery journey, emphasizing the importance of service, self-awareness, and mental resilience. The discussion also touches on broader societal issues, including gender identity, political fear-mongering, and the need for systemic change.
